Working with Ashley was amazing. She was so flexible and took everything I asked for into account. I was so indecisive about how to wear my hair, that she went above and beyond and styled it a way that I could wear it up for the ceremony and down for the reception. I couldn't believe how good it looked when I took it down halfway through the day! It was actually insane. I woke up feeling stressed and as soon as she showed up, she made me feel completely relaxed. Even my mom, who never ever wears makeup, absolutely loved working with Ashley and loved the result. She is so talented and professional, but honestly felt like a good friend showing up to do my makeup. I will definitely be working with her again!

Wonderful! I felt so beautiful, just like a princess.
Ashley is amazing at both hair and make-up and was very accommodating for what myself and my bridesmaids wanted.

Ashley is incredible! I was wearing two dresses for my wedding - an indian lengha and a white wedding dress. I wanted to switch dresses half way through my reception so having one beautiful hairstyle that could work with both looks was key. i knew it wasnt going to be easy to find a hairstylist who could help me bring my vision to life - until I met Ashley. We hit it off right away. She's so down to earth, super creative, professional, amazing at what she does and just so poised. People loved my hair - we went old school glam, the switch between dresses went smoothly and Ashley helped me feel beautiful on my big day! She is a superstar!
